Mavs, civic leaders provide honest, powerful insights at ‘Courageous Conversation’

If America is broken when it comes to race relations, healing cannot begin without honest dialogue.

On Tuesday, truth was dished out in industrial-sized portions as the Mavericks assembled some of Dallas’ most respected and vocal civic leaders for what was called “Courageous Conversation” about the killing of George Floyd and the difficult aftermath.

Owner Mark Cuban and CEO Cynt Marshall organized the rally, which had a goal of helping all people listen, learn and unite.

The event featured more than a dozen speakers, including Dallas police chief Renee Hall, DISD superintendent Dr. Michael Hinojosa, Mavericks’ assistant coaches Stephen Silas and Jamahl Mosley and former Mavs Sam Perkins and Cedric Ceballos.
